‘My accent is very soft': Pierce Brosnan responds to criticism of MobLand accent
The Irish Independent's review of the series said Brosnan's speaking voice as Conrad was 'all over the shop and a huge distraction'. In response to criticism, Brosnan told Radio Times: 'My own accent is very soft, Conrad's accent is a million miles away from me.' He went on to explain that the inspiration for the accent was a man suggested by his dialect coach, adding: 'I told him that I needed a Kerry accent, so he gave me the name of a man and I googled the guy and that was it. 'It was a Kerry accent and so I just gave it full tilt.' In the interview, Brosnan also spoke of the mix of worry and excitement he faces when taking on new roles. The 72-year-old explained: 'Every job is a challenge and it all comes with a thump of anxiety, because you have to do something. Brosnan was speaking in an interview with Radio Times magazine (Radio Times/PA) 'What are you doing on the stage? Why are you there? So that's constant. You live with that. You live with that stress all the time, and that's what's so exhilarating. 'That's what makes you alive.' Brosnan is best known for playing James Bond from 1995 to 2002, starring in four films as 007 in GoldenEye (1995), Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), The World Is Not Enough (1999), and Die Another Day (2002). He has also starred in Mamma Mia! (2008), Mars Attacks! (1996) and Mrs Doubtfire (1994).

Ex-Bond girl Denise Richards reveals her ‘amazing' choice for the next James Bond as casting rumors swirl
The name is Aaron… Aaron Phypers. At least, that's the moniker Denise Richards would throw in the ring to play the Martini-sipping 007 next. The actress, 54, is no stranger to the Bond universe, as she starred as Dr. Christmas Jones alongside Pierce Brosnan, who played James Bond, in the 1999 action/thriller 'The World Is Not Enough.' 12 Aaron Phypers and Denise Richards attend the Jonathan Foundation's 11th annual Spring Fundraiser at Sheraton Universal Hotel on May 17, 2025. Getty Images 12 Denise Richards and Phypers speak with Alexandra Bellusci at the Jonathan Foundation's 11th annual Spring Fundraise. Speculation about who the new British Secret Service agent will be has been swirling, but Richards thinks her husband of seven years would be a dashing fit. 'I really don't even know,' the 'Wild Things' vet exclusively told The Post during The Jonathan Foundation Fundraiser on Saturday, before Phypers, 52, chimed in, 'I would do it.' 'He would be an amazing Bond,' Richards concurred, to which the wellness guru added, 'I could do it. No problem.' 12 The Jonathan Foundation's 11th Annual Spring Fundraiser at Sheraton Universal Hotel. Faye's Vision/INSTARimages 'I don't even know who is in the mix,' Richards admitted. 'I know they will cast someone amazing.' Looking back at her time as a Bond girl, the reality star couldn't help but gush over the entire experience from start to finish. 'Just being part of it,' Richards said of her favorite memory. 'I didn't understand the magnitude of that movie until it came out, and it is amazing the generations that love the film. So, just the whole process and everything was such a whirlwind, amazing time.' 12 Pierce Brosnan and Denise Richards in the 1999 film 'The World Is Not Enough.' Everett Collection / Everett Collection There's no word if Richards would return to the new era of the franchise, but Daniel Craig's portrayal of Bond came to an end in 2021's 'No Time to Die.' In February, franchise producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson sold a stake of the movies to Amazon MGM Studios for a reported $1 billion. By March, news broke that Amy Pascal — who helped bring Craig, 57, in as the 7th Bond — and David Heyman would be spearheading the next James Bond project. 12 Denise Richards as Dr Christmas Jones in a scene from the James Bond film 'The World Is Not Enough.'

In March, Brosnan, who took on the role from 1995 to 2002, said it's a 'given' that the next man to suit up must be British. 'History has been passed on,' the Irish star said. 'And I'm very proud to have been part of the history and the legacy of Bond and the movies that I made with Barbara and Michael.' 12 Denise Richards and Pierce Brosnan in 'The World Is Not Enough.'

Years later, Phypers legally adopted Eloise. Their youngest daughter was diagnosed with chromosome 8 in 2016, which has caused developmental delays for the teen. Nevertheless, Eloise is thriving. 12 Denise Richards, Aaron Phypers in 'Denise Richards & Her Wild Things.' Nicole Weingart/E!

During filming, Richards gave the audience a look into a photoshoot she did for a potential cooking show titled 'Only Pans' — and yes, there is something brewing.

I am terrible!' Richards said, to which Phypers chimed in: 'Definitely the clean-up part.' The pair tied the knot in Malibu in 2018, with Richards sharing in a statement at the time, 'I am so happy to officially be married to the love of my life!'
